Lightweight aviation tablet computer with capacitive touchscreen
It has been announced by representatives of Avalex Technologies, a military aviation tablet manufacturer, that they are introducing the new AST3127, 12” thin profile, ruggedised aviation tablet computer developed specifically for military air transport aircraft.
Tony Hatten, Vice President of Business Development for Avalex Technologies , stated: “Up until now crews flying legacy transports like the KC-10, C-130 and C-17 have not had the benefits of large format, touchscreen displays on the flight deck. Our new AST3127 thin profile, fully qualified and ruggedised aviation tablet computer delivers an array of situational awareness enhancing capabilities to the flight crews of these aircraft without the high costs of complete avionics upgrades.
“The large format, capacitive touchscreen display and high speed graphics capabilities enables flight crews to quickly access critical mission information including real time updates of mission progress, maps, weather, terrain and full-size approach plates.
“In addition, to provide the highest level of definition and image visibility in any cockpit lighting conditions, the new AST3127 tablet has a fully-sunlight readable 12.1” WXGA display.”
The AST3127 includes:
- Fully Mil-Spec qualified portable tablet computer
- 12.1” 16:9 aspect ratio WXGA display with 1280x800 resolution
- Large format viewing of approach plates, charts, maps, weather, terrain and mission information
- Capacitive touchscreen with pinch-zoom-swipe capabilities
- Lightweight, only 2.5” deep
- Dual core Intel 17 high speed processor
- Gigabit Ethernet or USB port connectivity
- Solid state drive or SD card for quick uploads of critical mission data
- Standard panel or swing arm mounting capabilities
- Optional Night Vision Imaging System compatibility
- Optional integrated camera to implement streaming VTC capability
Hatten added: “Avalex has a long history of providing cost-effective cockpit display solutions that deliver the highest-degree of capabilities and reliability to our brave military flight crews around the world. By bringing new-generation functionality and situational awareness to the crews flying our legacy transport aircraft, the AST3127 is helping our crews complete their missions safer and with greater success.”
